Update!

THANK YOU!!!


If you have given to the Beyond Stewardship Campaign, we want to thank you for your generosity above and beyond your regular giving! To date, you've given $506,616.37, and this number grows weekly! This is just over 25% of our original goal, and it's 43% of what was committed!


Here's an update on each of the areas of our campaign:


In Aurora...

- We've been able to pay our staff: Hunter Holbrook (Campus Pastor), Jason Beyer (Next Gen Pastor), and John Beyer (Custodian).

- We've been collecting bids on repairing the roof. Repairs should begin sometime later this summer.

- We've begun the exploration phase of what it would like to expand the restrooms.

- Some other interior/aesthetic upgrades are in the works (i.e. signs, branding, etc.)


In Greeley...

We've been executing a plan to a) increase the number of seats in the Auditorium, and b) upgrade some necessary equipment to improve your worship experience in-person and online...


- New cameras have allowed us to move them from the middle to the back of the room. They provide better quality and room for more seats.

- New lighting will be installed soon increasing visibility on the stage and in the room.

- New sound equipment replacing some malfunctioning and failed equipment for the worship team.

- New sturdier chairs will soon replace our current set of chairs which regularly and easily break.

- Some upgrades to our landscaping main entrance landscaping.

- Some wall decals for our Journey Kids classrooms.


In Sterling & Kenya...

- Pastor Scott has been in discussion with Sterling Correctional Facility, and we’re waiting for a lot of "red tape" to be removed as the campus there is moving rooms to increase capacity and items we already own (a baptistery, some equipment, etc.) are getting approved for the facility.

- Pastor Arron Chambers has been in discussion with CRF regarding Kenya. Based on CRF's President's guidance, we're currently waiting until we have the full $140,000 for them to start the project.


Again, we want to say THANK YOU!!! The impact of Journey Christian is being felt in Greeley, Evans, Northern Colorado, Aurora, Sterling, all over the country, and around the world!!! Thank you for helping us to go BEYOND!!!



Keeping reading to more about the beginnings of the BEYOND Stewardship Campaign...



We want you to know, brothers, about the grace of God that has been given among the churches of Macedonia, for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of generosity on their part. For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and BEYOND their means, of their own accord, begging us earnestly for the favor of taking part in the relief of the saints— and this, not as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us.

2 Corinthians 8:1-5

Letter from our

Lead Pastor

I have a tattoo on my right arm that I got in honor of my Dad that reads, “Non Plus Ultra. Let me explain it to you. In Valladolid, Spain, where Christopher Columbus died in 1506, stands a monument commemorating the great discoverer. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the memorial is a statue of a lion destroying one of the Latin words that had been part of Spain's motto for centuries. Before Columbus made his voyages, the Spaniards thought they had reached the outer limits of earth. Thus their motto was "Non Plus Ultra," which means "No More Beyond." The word being torn away by the lion is "non" or "no," making it read "Plus Ultra." Columbus had proven that there was indeed "more beyond." I believe there is more BEYOND for Journey in 2024, so—in faith—we are raising $2 million to go BEYOND in five key areas:

  • In Greeley: With the growth we are experiencing, we need to improve some of the technology we use for our worship services and possibly expand the seating capacity of our current auditorium. 
  • In Aurora: Our new campus needs to be remodeled and has staff that needs to be hired so we can more effectively reach the Denver Metro area for Christ. 
  • In Colorado Correctional Facilities: Our Sterling campus—and our upcoming Buena Vista Campus—need equipment to help facilitate worship services—both in person and over video. 
  • In Kenya: Journey Christian Institute (which includes Journey Bible College) is in desperate need of more housing and classrooms to reach its growing student body. 
  • In Property Debt: We are hoping to pay down at least 25% of our Greeley property debt so we are in a better position to fulfill the mission God has for us in Colorado and around the world.

Thank you for prayerfully considering how you will join us on this important journey. 

Believing for More Beyond, 

Arron Chambers

PLAN

Over the course of the next 25 months, we aim to raise $2 million. If we reach this goal, we will be able to do more than ever before. This money would be used to expand our reach in Greeley, Aurora, the Colorado Department of Corrections, and even Kenya! Here is a breakdown of how the money we raise will be used.
